CCS/BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS: Controleur for BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS driver

Part Number: BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529, , DRV8323

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I would like to control a brushless motor (36V max / 45A max / 1620W max) with a BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS driver. My question is about the controlleur adpated to this motor driver. Is the MSP430F5529 microcontroller only adapted to this driver as described on the technical document ? I have a CC1352P2 launchpad that I would like to connect it to the BOOSTXL-DRV8323RS. Is it possible ? If not, have you a reference for a motor driver adapted to my launchpad and my motor needs?

The full project is to creat a motorised longboard with a max speed of 30km/h. 

Thanks in advance for your answer.

Sincerely,

PERRIN Paul-Emile

  • Hello PERRIN Paul-Emile,

    The DRV8323RS User Guide has a table that shows the signals to the EVM and the MSP connections. I've pasted them below.

    Take a look at column 2 and 3, and see if you have find an equivalent launchpad connection for the CC1352P2 launchpad. Looking at the MSP function should give you some idea if the signal is an input, output, timing sensitive output, or power rail. Let me know if you have any questions for any specific node. Definitely look at the schematic to make sure it is connected correctly.

      

    Just to be clear and establish expectations, if you were able to find an equivalent signal between the DRV8323 and CC1352P2 launchpad, you still need to develop your own code base to run the motor. With the exception of 1x PWM mode, we expect customers to develop their own motor drive algorithm at this point. The provided code with the EVM is reference code that only works with that specific MSP. Because TI doesn't sell motor algorithms, (unless they're already integrated with the device) you probably won't get too much help about how to implement any specific algorithm. We can provide some links to some videos that give you pro's and con's.

    This means, you should have some idea if sensing the phase voltage or phase currents is important to your algorithm, which would lead to the requirement of the ADC's and utilizing pins 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 on J3.

    Best,
